| You could do worse than reading the XP resource kit documentation. I've not sat the exam yet so I can't guarantee that it wil be enough to make you pass but its certainly a hell of a lot more detailed than the XP training kit from MS  | |

| This method has worked for me for many years. I try to use the following resources:
1. One good study guide, whether it be from MS, Sybex, or wherever (I'm currently studying for CCNA with a Sybex and it is excellent)
2. Get a study guide from Cram$ession.com
3. You absolutely should get a self test software package, like Tran$cenders.
4. Read every article you can about the particular subject you are studying for (subscribe to TechRepublic; get articles from 2000trainer$.com; etc)
5. Subscribe to daily practice questions from Cram$ession.com
This may sound like a lot, but it really isn't - not if you're serious about passing the first time. I wish you well with your next attempt. | |

| some people suggest studying 215 alongside 210. maybe 215 would help study of 270 as well. | |

| Yeah the comeons is definitely right, I've found a lot of crossover but unfortunately I haven't been studying for the 215 yet so I'm having difficulties with those bits  | |

| Tough break. I am preparing for this exam as well. I am using the MS Press Kit for Windows XP Professional. Try to find as many study guides as possible and the resource kit will be a definite help. Good luck with the re-try of this exam. | |

| I used the MSPress book for the 70-270 exam the resource kit and Windows XP inside & out to study for the exam.
After using XP for nearly a year the exam was quite straightforward but not easy.
If you can purchase a copy of the resource kit you won't be disappointed.

When did you take this exam Lexy? I look to take it in the next 30 days. Any advice or tips for me? | |

| Hi Rush,
I took 270 last November. It's not a complicated exam, pretty similar to Windows 2000 so revise the material for that exam.
Then it's a case of learning all the new features that are included in XP (Restore points, software firewall, driver rollback etc.)
The MSPress book gives a good grounding and the resource kit tells you pretty much everything else you need to know about a subject if you want more information or greater detail on a particular subject.
Hope this helps and good luck.
